The year is 2010. Miami had just completed a 9-4 season. It is head coach Randy Shannon's 4th season.
It is November 22nd. The Miami Hurricanes are unranked with a 7-4 record. Randy Shannon's overall record at Miami is 28-21. They have faced the 16th toughest schedule according to Jeff Sagarin's computer ratings. Their losses came at the hands of ranked Ohio St and FSU teams, and in a 5-point game on the road after their QB was knocked out of the contest.
Shannon just lost to an eventual 11-3, ranked VT team at home by 14.
It is an all out assault on the head coach. Fans everywhere are demanding Randy Shannon's head on a platter. Memes insulting his intelligence are being created. His character is under attack. A united front is underway. 99% of the fanbase is out for blood and wants him removed. They would've drug his body through the streets if they could've got their claws on him. He became public enemy number one.
Fast forward to today...
The year is 2014. Miami has just completed a 9-4 season. It is head coach Al Golden's 4th season.
It is November 22nd. The Miami Hurricanes are unranked with a 6-5 record. Al Golden's overall record at Miami is 28-20. They have faced the 21st toughest schedule according to Jeff Sagarin's computer ratings. Their losses came at the hands of ranked FSU, GT, and Louisville teams, and an unranked Nebraska team.
Golden just lost on the road by 17 to a 4-6 unranked UVA team.
Fans are celebrating a close defeat at home to Florida State. Comparisons to Miami's 1999 team are being made. Optimism is at an all time high. Many have begun claiming Al Golden is the next Butch Davis. Fans are excited at the progress Miami has made over its last 4 games -- a loss, and wins over a mid-major and two .500 teams. Orange ties are being put on babies. Pleated khaki sales are at an all time high. Home Depot can't keep pillars on the shelf. He is met with a hero's reception when he returns to town. Flowers are thrown at his feet as he is carried back to his office. "We love your beautiful white skin!" They shout. "Beautiful hair," they scream from below.
Congratulations, the most diverse fanbase in the country is secretly racist.
Sad to see the double standards that occur at a university that prides itself on progressive thinking and enlightened views. I'll let you grand wizards get back to the rally.
